Chapter 883: Chapter 881 Rotten Flesh (Part 2) Chapter 883: Chapter 881 Rotten Flesh (Part 2) “Don’t think of us as so dreadful,” Fu Qian heard Yuan Shan explain with a helpless face when he mentioned Logan, “It’s just that Lord Logan has a relatively fiery temper.”

“Of course, your style tends to attract hatred indeed.”

“And you don’t have to worry about this aspect at all, although members of the Council did come over these past two days, they have already rushed to Ye Island.”

“Because of the conflict issue? They react that quickly?”

Fu Qian nodded.

“The main reason is that Yin Hehong’s request for help was truly urgent.”

It was apparent that after several interactions during this period, Yuan Shan no longer had the same reservations about Fu Qian, allowing him knowledge of certain small details of events.

“If it wasn’t for my emphasis that the situation here was unstable, that guy even hoped I could go over and help.”

Yin Hehong?

An image of someone making a warning visit naturally surfaced in Fu Qian’s mind.

“What is his reason for asking for help, to capture Sybil who caused injuries among ordinary people?”

“A demigod who is determined to escape is not so easy to catch.”

Yuan Shan’s face showed a wry smile.

“His reasons were rather vague, just stating that the conflict between two groups might spiral out of control and he hoped someone could help manage the situation, the more the merrier.”

So the norm is to hold everything under control, and the moment things go south, he shakes people off?

Fu Qian secretly nodded.

Considering the relationship between Yin Hehong and Yasui Tokiyuki, they must have realized something by now.

But anyway, they would never have guessed that Yasui Tokiyuki had already died–strictly speaking, not completely dead, he should be said to have curled up into a ball.

“So how has Old Master Logan been doing lately?”

Although Yuan Shan showed considerable sincerity, it still involved operational secrets, and it would be impolite to inquire further.

Fu Qian naturally changed the subject.

“Not bad… From the recent feedback, it seems there might be a turning point.”

Given the content of their conversation just now, Yuan Shan did not find Fu Qian’s question abrupt at all, and answered with a somewhat relieved tone.

Just like in the mission summary, probably related to the “flame” turning fake.

Fu Qian nodded at this, secretly thinking to himself.

And it appeared that Old Master Xiumeng and his group had likely escaped safely; otherwise, the internal atmosphere of the Night Watchman would probably not be so calm.

By this time, the water had boiled; he casually grabbed two handfuls of tea leaves to brew and pushed a cup towards Yuan Shan.

“Thank you!”

Watching the swirling tea leaves, Yuan Shan felt a bit overwhelmed by the favor.

“In any case, here in Shangjing, you don’t have to worry about Gulad’s people causing any trouble anymore, except Selana might want to retrieve her belongings.”

“Are they being targeted now?”

“Grantham’s days have indeed not been easy; Gan Zuoxun has probably been the happiest during this period,” Yuan Shan sighed.

“With the spread of Ember’s death, I took a relatively stern stand on some issues, clearing a few obstacles to help this new municipal official implement some laws.”

“Don’t put on an act of being reluctantly troubled; you’re probably secretly delighted, aren’t you?”

Unfortunately, her expression was instantly seen through by Fu Qian.

“Having such a good reason land right at my doorstep, with a scapegoat available there, other organizations suffering losses can do nothing but direct their anger at this colleague.”

“That group is always restless.”

Faced with Fu Qian’s sharp critique, Yuan Shan broke for a moment, a smile appearing on her lips.

“If you don’t whip them harshly from time to time, Ye Island is a perfect example.”

“Anyway, I greatly appreciate it this time, and if there’s anything you need help with in the future, just ask.”

What is called haste makes waste, and here it is?

Fu Qian was very satisfied with Yuan Shan’s reciprocation of his goodwill.

This member of the Night Watchman might seem unreliable, but she is actually quite clear-headed.

These words nearly meant that unless there were issues of principle, she would fully act as his protector.

“Actually, I also have something I’d like to ask you.”

Fu Qian did not hesitate, and directly continued the next moment.

“What is it?”

Given what she knew of Fu Qian’s principle, Yuan Shan did not find it surprising at all.

“Do you know a Transcendent named Nepheli?”

Fu Qian did not rush to mention the target of the mission.

“…Nepheli?”

Yuan Shan unconsciously repeated the name, obviously a bit surprised.

“A demigod?”

Really knew her?

Fu Qian slightly frowned, recalling briefly.

“At least she was.”

“Skilled in many abilities, especially in hiding?”

This matched even more; Fu Qian nodded.

“That’s right.”

“I don’t know where you encountered her, but the one you’re talking about might have been a former instructor at the Academy, who disappeared many years ago for reasons unknown.”

Really related to the Academy?

Fu Qian recalled his altercation with Nepheli.

“Good Spell Institute?”

“You do know quite a bit about the Academy, huh!” Yuan Shan looked at him somewhat surprised.

“To be precise, she was the former head of the Good Spell Institute; it’s said that after she left, the Institute never recovered.”

So that was it; no wonder she managed those miraculous tricks so sneakily!

Leaving the academic Holy Land to join an evil organization?

The legendary strength tripling upon turning evil is actually true?

Judging by Yuan Shan’s information, Nepheli should have been only at the Demigod Tier before her disappearance, but this time on Ye Island, she was already a definite Divine Envoy.

Even barring the direct summoning of a True God, she was much more difficult to handle than Ariel!

Quite an unexpected gain!

Originally, Fu Qian did not expect Yuan Shan to know much about Nepheli, and the main reason for asking was just as a form of groundwork.

“In any case, if you do encounter her, remember to never let your guard down at any time; among the demigods from Nepheli’s era, she is almost the most difficult to deal with.”

Yuan Shan seemed to have no intention of asking further, taking a sip from the tea in front of her.

“Anything else you want to know? If not, I’ll be leaving now; I’ve got a lot of things piled up to handle.”

“There is more.”

Fu Qian continued without hesitation.

“Do you know a Transcendent named Jiang En?”

Although he planned to use the Night Watchman’s help to find people, suddenly popping up with a name was somewhat abrupt.

But if two names came out together, even if one of them got into an issue, it would easily lead to endless speculations without needing his own explanation.

Moreover, from the current situation, the mission only required sabotaging a ritual; Fu Qian did not think he necessarily had to eliminate Jiang En.

“A Transcendent named Jiang En?”

Unexpectedly, at the next moment, Yuan Shan actually nodded again.

“I am not sure if it’s the one you are talking about, but indeed, I do know one.”

…This is really too casual!
